Description

The Limassol Municipality announces that after the unprecedented success of this year's Carnival celebrations in the city, it was decided to continue the events with the revival of old traditions such as Mi-Carême.

The origin of Mi-Carême is lost in the mists of time. It has been celebrated in many European communities since the Middle Ages.

The essence of the carnival-like Mi-Carême is a spirit of joy, laughter and mockery that contrasts with the Lenten period of austerity, severity and penance leading up to Easter.

All people are welcomed to the event, to have fun, dance and bid farewell to the carnival of 2014.
